CHESAPEAKE, Va. (AP) -- Holy Grail? No, Honus Wagner! A Chesapeake, Va., coin shop is displaying one of the rarest of all baseball cards. It's a 1909 Honus Wagner card, one of only about 100 known to still exist. It's being shown at Dominion Coin this week. The card is now owned by a Baltimore convent. It was left to the nuns by the brother of one of the sisters. It's up for auction in Texas next week. A Honus Wagner card in pristine condition has sold for more than two million bucks. This one is worn and is expected to go for about 150-grand.
